Abstract :
A compact radiometer system having two small antennas of different beam widths was developed to detect water vapor concentration by measuring atmospheric attenuation of the sun radiation at K-band. Experimental results have shown general agreement in the trend of theoretically calculated ones against absolute humidity at ground level.
